You can choose the gender of your character and for the first time, your partner as well. However, it's like the original PMD in that genders have no effect on the actual gameplay, nor are they shown on any Pokemon.

I'm still kind of curious about whether or not your gender choice for your character and partner will affect the dialogue much, if at all, and it's for that reason I'm making my hero a female Snivy and my partner a male Axew.

What if the reason they didn't have that many pokemon IMO was perhaps to save us from the inevitable 3ds Main Pokemon game. Or they're setting up a sequel..?

Pretty much the main reason we get games like Mystery Dungeon and Ranger is to hold us off while they work on new games. I have no doubt that 6th gen is coming soon, but probably not too soon.

Honestly...the PMD games have always been needlessly obnoxious when it comes to recruiting and using Pokemon.
Cutting down is probably for the best

I suppose, but I think they went a tad far with it in this game. First of all, I think every 5th gen Pokemon should've appeared and been recruitable. Also, I'm a bit disappointed that you can't recruit the mascot legendaries, I'd love to be able to tear through dungeons as Zekrom/Black Kyurem like a boss.

Nice, Gates of Infinity? Can't wait! I might get it on launch, but I'd also like to get a Wii U with the birthday money I get (April 9th), so I don't want to buy too much stuff until then. Then again, I have like $175. We'll see.

I saw the intro and I think you can chose 1 if not the 2 pokemon at the start i kinda miss the test
also I would like more pokemon to start with, Deino would be cool + he could have some bond or some thing with hydreigon
Maybe we could have different outcomes by been given choices like it could have been Spoiler:- Spoiler!!!:

Spoiler:- MAJOR spoilers regarding both the ending and post-story plot.:

Your character actually decides of their own accord to return their world at end of the game.

Naturally, this eventually ends up making your partner completely miserable, and a certain someone is bothered by this, so after much effort, they find a way to temporarily unite the two worlds in order to let your partner get in touch with you so they can ask if you'd come back to the Pokemon world for their sake, while also creating the opportunity for you to do so.

It's at that point that you're presented with the realistic dilemma of whether or not you're willing to give up your life as a human for the sake of your partner. While you need to agree to further the game's story, you're still allowed to refuse and witness whatever sadness results from it (The game just sends you back to town as though you never completed the prior dungeon afterward).

maybe now we can have a 5th gen pokemon ranger game......yes? please nintendo?

For the foreseeable future, I can't see a 3d Ranger Game. It would be cool, but IMO it's run its course, at least for a good while. Although getting it in the latter half of 2013 could definitely work as it appears we have no mainstream game coming next year (for people outside of Japan). I wonder if the monster rooms or whatever they're called are returning. I had many a bad experience with them...

You know I'm wondering why they sent this one out, but they didn't do it for BSL. I think it stupid, I heard that they got rid of the test, because people didn't like it. I actually enjoyed the test! And I'm not buying a 3DS if it's going to be stupid. I love Time, Darkness, and Sky! I just hope thes are as good as them. And it seems they have their stories...plain lately. Don't get mad when I say this, but I didn't like the story line of Black and White nir Black and White 2.

I've encountered Landorus like 5 times already, and i never managed to recruit it, omg. This is so hard. How did you even recruit him Serebii, or Coronis? The Password Item to recruit Ground Type isn't even helping me a bit -__- (I've gave it to the Pokemon i'm defeating Landorus with, and it still doesn't recruit!)

Okay guys! On the first day of 2013, i've FINALLY managed to recruit Landorus! I just realized that you only have to use the Ground Gift while facing Landorus, before (Like 10+ times when i encountered him), i've threw the item at him and wondered why it didn't work XD.
